Conclusion of LSD Study: ~ * "

. In the past four years of research with LSD-25 we have

; developed reliable roethods of. (a) analyzing social situations and

interactions; (b) describing personality in terms of social adjust-
ment, and (c) relating sociar^ituations ; and social personality
types to the specific eiTeot^f^LSDr^hrough this methodology^ ^

it has been. possible to identify some importan t d eterminants of ~
drug effects which have not been previously considered in studies:-.----:--

of. LSD-25. . ; . . ; .\ . ' '

■- ;> /'^rwhilewe-havelrnade considerable progress in systemati- '
cally studying these determinants, a certain amount of data analysis

still remains to be completed before the determinants of the

LSD-25 effect on individual cases can be reliably stated.

' Therefore, the primary objective, of this final phase of

the project is to complete the analysis of data on all our subjects

in order to define the extent that differences in certain effects

can be accounted for by the above-mentioned determinants.

A second objective is to complete reports bn some peripheral
studies conducted with Serpisil and certain other psycuochemieals.

. f A third objective is to reduce and summarize the- many
progress reports submitted during the course of the? project into
a final report.' •

In the past three years of research with the drug I£D-25> -

have developed reliable methods of analyzing sbcial -Situation's and _
interactions. Our process in assessing personality types is useful
- in diagnosis andprediction. These methods are based on a multi-
. discipline assessment of personality in dynamic social adjustment
under normal circumstances and under stress, i.e., drug effect,
irrespective of the attributes of any specific drug.

' The briefest phrase to characterize our main area of study-is
"social personality" . A laborator y of experime ntal social psychiatry
has been established in such a way that various types of personality
and many situations may be subjected to critica l study .
its methods can be ap plied to any speci fic problem such
of LSD or other drugs like alcohol/ or\ the improvement of interpersonal

. relations.

■ There are two impor tan t steps to be taken: (l) Completing

the work in progress of personality types so ve can define more
clearly our social personality types and relate them to (a) the
more standard, objective tests such as the Wechsler-Bellevue on
which theory of types is based, and (b) the conventional

clinical projective tests such as the Rorschach and Thematic Apper-
ception Tests; (2) Trying out the utility of these J e ® ts
special interview and- quest ion naire methods developed in the course
of our studies for predicting specifiable change in social behavior
following the ing estion of various drugs, particularly ISD and
alcohol. . . .

There are two import ant steps to be taken: .( 1 ) Completing the work
in progress of personality typ es so wercan defi n e mo re clearly our social
personality types and relate them to (a) the more standard, objective tests

such as the Wechsler-Bellevue oh which'

theory of types is' based,

and (b) the conventional clinical projective tests such as the Rorschach and

Methodand'Organizalioh'

We. are considering three, specific 'areas of personality, each of which is
currently being explored with different methods

■ In the evaluation of the social personality types, we have examined
personality along simple social .dimensions by ; easily applied interview and

observational methods to determine how a particular type functions under
stresses induced by social-situationai changes or drugs.

The social dimensions we used he re focused primarily on the subject's »

interpersonal relationship: (a) a person's feelings about other people; (b) / ~

how does he communicate to other people; (c) how does he react to stress
situations which involve his relationships to othe r pe ople; (d) how aware is .

he of how he is behaving when he is with other people. ; From these

dimensions we derived thirty- six per son ality attributes .

Through one method of analysis, using a theoretical point .of Lview r: 7

of the above method of evaluation, six personality types have been determined.

The relationships established between these types and their reaction to - ,,

L.S.D. have been reported in our 1953-1954 Annu al Report. Persons who
’ over-value acceptance or rej ection of o t hers tend towa rd a turmoil type of,

L. S.D. reaction. Per sons who are socially introverted are most likely to

have a schizophrenic type of reaction. On the. other hand we were unable to ,

predict the psychiatric syndrome or its severity the elated or interactive
type. It is clearly indicated that further careful study is required to determine
• more reliable criteria for prediction and diagnosis.

Some subjects maintained enough of their pre-L. S.D. traits to remain
characteristically of the same personality type under L.S.D. Others, however,
showed under L.S.D. traits opposite their pre-L. S. D.‘ characteristics.

3 v, *

A more thorough investigation of these two trends is needed which, will
clarify the significant dynamics of personality reacti on to stress.

To help resolve the above areas of difficulty, a factor analysis has
been done on the thirty-six attributes.. Two very- reliable,, relatively pure

factors have been determined: Faetbr^I is the dimension qf introversion

w ' . -S'*"

- - V* * •

extroversion; while Factorll ranges from dominant- extrapunitive to

submissive -intrapunitive dimensions.- The determination of these factors , _

: *1

open up considerable opportunity to correlate this method of assessment with ^

other more standardized tests suc h ae the Wec hsl er -Bellevue and other . .

- *

projective tests such as the Rorschach,

Another methodised in the study of the assessment of the social

personality is the qu estio nn aire . The Di recti on- C ont rol Questionnaire is
filled out by the subject himself before he takes-

On the basis of interview data of the first forty-three subjects, we ,

found that specific changes id social direction took place from pre to during

L. S. D. , e. g. , a decrease in moving with, an increase in moving away,

toward and against other'people. From the interview d^ta we constructed

#

a questionnaire of two hundred and eleven items to determine a person's
behavior in these areas. As a result of an item reliability analysis, on a
sample of two hundred and twenty college students, we have reduced the
number to forty-three highly discriminating items.

The dimensions measured by this qeestionnaire are: (2) the five
directions a person moves in his interpersonal relationships, i.e. , with,
toward,

out, away and against other people.

V,*

T-^V'-'w^Taeiettces as he^ interacts with others. Further work will include scoring

previous questionnaires to correlate them with personality types and

factor scores. : , .

" "A

This, technique offers us the opp ortunity toT deterl nlne the relationship
between the_sociai personality assessment.by interview and observation

with an assessment by the subject himself and with other testing procedures.
. The following method and- organization of study of the social

personality assessment is proposed:

(1) There is data available on lone hun dred and twenty-five subjects

which can b¥ classified on social personality attributes. So far only
forty-three subjects have been classified. Tt is proposed that this year the
complete data will be classified. This wilFexfehd the number of subjects in
each category to a point where our results will be more statistically reliable. .

(2) New subjects will be studied to the extent necessary to increase
; *>

■ our sample in any categories to a statistically treatable number. 11 It: is .

"impossible to state the number of additional subjects that are necessary.

(3) In the elated personality type a sizeable number of subjects are

*

represented. So far no significant predictive trend has been established <

for this type. By factor analysis of the' various attributes, it is expected
that this elated category may be subdivided into component categories which

will be statistically reliable for predictive as well as diagnostic purposes.

- - - ... t ~

More subjects of this type will be tested in our conventional manner if it is

necessary

- 5 -

; V (4) A reliable scoring method has beej\_<^tablisbe4for the.. Direction- ^

Control Questionnaire (See Social Personality Assessment). Seventy-five v:
; L, S.D. subjects have been administered this questionnaire. The scoring
and analysis will be carried but this year. This would be expected to
- lead to more critical evaluation of the social personality types. The two
• methods of assessment of personality, the social interview, which is more
informal and personal in its administration, and the Direction-Control
Questionnaire, which covers the same general area by using an established
series of questions will be compared. T hi s co mparison of these two

" . J

’ >

I

instruments should show which, areas of interview are of most value as • m

well as offering a standardized measuring device, namely, the Direction-
Control Questionnaire. Additional studies of college students will be
carried on in. the a ppli c a ti on o f the s e i ns tr um e nts , :

B. Theory gn the “Wechsler- Bellevue Psychometric *=

The general theory per sonality types has proved :r 7 ; ^

in: our last semi-annual report which dealt with polar classifications based ,

• .

on acquaintance with the subjects. The theory being attached to one of the

most reliable psychological instruments (Wechsler-jBellevue) makes possible *

. C' * 1

the attainment of relationships to social and projective measures of personality.

In addition, attaching of hypothesis to each mode of learning

(subtests) may reveal which adjustment patterns indicated by other instruments

are stable or in the process of change. Moreover, the scatter pattern,

depicting the subject's preferential modes of learning should prove useful in

distinguishing personality types displaying similar behavior patterns, but.
, * ' •
varying dynamic structures. . •

.'•.We have already acquired forty Wechsler-Bellevues on subjects

prior to their taking L.S.D. Analysis of scatter, and correlation with other —
„ * *

measures would be needed to indicate’ how many cases would be required to
render reliable the dynamics underlying scatter patterns. Selected
individuals would be tested to provide us with adequate sample for each y
theoretical quadrant and assure us of proper statistical manipulation, —

C. Psychological Projective Tests

-• ‘ The Thematic Apperception, Rorschach Ink-blot and Draw-a-Person

Tests are conventional clinical instruments, — We have used them to assess
overall personality style, perceptual organization and interpersonal _

attitudes, both with and without L.S.D. The content of the subject's

personality problems is also indicated.

The average results of twenty-nine subjeetjras a group have been

analyzed for each test separately a nd wer e reported in our last semi-annual

•report.

A substantial contribution would be made to assessment of

personality dynamics if the performance of each subject separately on the
three projective tests were analyzed. Twenty-four subjects have taken these
tests who had our standard dose of L.S.D. It is planned to correlate the
subjects 1 responses on the - three tests to Mentify discrete psychological types.

These same twenty-four subjects have been classified into types
arrived at by the social personality assessment method so the psychological
types will be compared with the social types. This procedure will provide

V;V

" 'f'C#.- -7.

^-comparative tesj and may suggest new dimensions or type refinements
for the present social personality categories. A dimension of depth of
inner personality structure will thus be added to the breadth of outer social

patterns. V-'" /• — j, „/ . ... _

. " -?■ - Minor Areas for Completion

' It is proposed to continue some work in several areas nearing
completion or growing put of the previous research. ' /

method in the 1953-1954 Annual Report, has been given to twenty subjects.

It is the most direct scorable assessment of emotions per se which we use, —
warranting completion of scoring and analysis.

(2) The difficulty of L. S.D. subjects in expressing their thoughts
and feelings has been viewed as a phenomena of emotional blocking,

■ intellectual deficit and interpersonal withdrawal. An educational -

psychologist, speech therapist,-has become interested in studying L. S. D.

- speech difficulties. We have recorded interviews of subjects, pre and during
. L.3..D. , which he will analyze to determine what, if any, aphasic conditions

if - -

may be present under L. S. D.„ Changes will be investigated in pitch, rate,
articulation or other functional distortions of speech such as are encountered
in stutterers and other speech conditions.

• (3) Material on the therapeutic and educational implications of

JL. S.D. for patients and' nOn'-patients rerfthins to be completed, Final analysis
of available data should not require very extensive work.

recently in devising a more appealing, spontaneous, but measurable situation
^whicKjrests more on determining the interests of subjects and patients. It
, . is called the "Interest Selector", The emphasis on interest developed from
-the analysis of re suits from the previous Occupational Therapy Test, which
showed subjects could carry out self-initiated 'activities better than those
requested or imposed by others. An initial manual with the rationale and
procedure for the "Selector" has already been written. . \
